I will. I'm just praying that I can get all the help I need. Once I'm done with school I know I will be fine financially. This environment I'm in now is just so overwhelming. I've helped my family a lot and now its like they turned their back on me.

Here is advice for you that can be of some use, OP. Since things are hectic at home, I suggest calling Safe Homes Project. Google them. They help victims of domestic violence get temporary space in a safe New York City space for 90 days. A case there will bring you closer to stable housing while you work, make prenatal visits, and finish school. People there work to assist you in laying a good foundation that your baby can come into. peace

Have you ever been to Ohio? There are TONS and TONS of people in the OPs circumstance. TONS. The only differnece is the CoL is less and you need a car.
